Savara is a Mikkian patriot who joined the Rebellion out of a desire to protect his home planet and reassert its importance on the Galactic stage. He values honesty, personal integrity, and discipline, and as such favors frequent drills and training exercises. Savara has long shown an intuitive streak and uncannily good reflexes. In another time, the Mikkians might have been proud to refer him to the Jedi for testing, though he lacked other telltale signs of Force sensitivity, but even Mikkian defiance of Imperial propaganda bends in the face of whispers about the Inquisitorius.

His first CO in the Rebellion was antagonistic and abusive, though careful not to cross any lines that would attract notice from further up the chain. Savara fought back with the reg book, but could only get so far. The back and forth probably had a role in Savara being assigned to a ship on deep patrol. The CO may or may not have been on Yavin 4 when it was attacked, Savara doesn't know (might never know for sure).

Drive: Subordinates. Savara is always pushing his soldiers to be better and develop their talents. He holds them accountable when they fall short, but is unstinting with earned praise.

Duty: Camaraderie. While Savara might put a premium on discipline, he wants his soldiers to trust and rely on each other, rather than seeing themselves as cogs in a war machine.

Morality: Discipline/Repression. Savara holds himself to a high standard of behavior and training, and sometimes neglects to consider activities that are primarily relaxing.

Savara has bright pink skin and the distinctive head tendrils of his species. His build is lean and wiry, and he is of average height relative to Humans. He tends to hold a stiff posture whether sitting or standing, but his voice is warm and friendly. His tastes in clothing tend towards neutral or dark colors, but he does keep a single outfit in pastel green for casual events.
